In medical equipment industry, more and more system automation is required because of heavy burden on operators with the increased volume of specimens to be tested and operator shortage issue nowadays. Additionally, pathological specimens such as cancers need to be thin-sliced with uniform thickness with operators’ proficient skill. Thus, they are still prepared by hand.

Under the circumstances, Hirata Corporation and Sakura Finetek Japan Co.,Ltd. develop our own independent structure by using air pressure and water surface tension in our joint names. This equipment enables you to make thin slice with uniform thickness precisely. In addition, it prevents any misidentification of specimen and any mix of other specimens.

This high-integrity and easy-to-use equipment reduces operators’ burden and prevents any misidentification and/or mixed-up in clinical inspection site, making contributions to medical field.
